Clearing a string in C

[Robert Collins]

How do I clear a string in C?

A string in my C program contains data from a previous operation. Now I want to use that same string again for new data. I tried the following....

MyString[MAX_CHARS] = NULL;

....but the string still holds the previous data.

Robert,

If its a zero terminated string buffer, just write an ascii zero to the first byte in the buffer.
